Definitions of Service Request Severity
Obtaining Additional Publications and Information
To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established
severity definitions.
Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is "down," or there is a critical impact to your business
operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the
situation.
Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects
of your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco
products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to
resolve the situation.
Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business
operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business
hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.
Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities,
installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
Information about Cisco products, technologies, and network solutions is available from
various online and printed sources.
